Leeds fans on Twitter have questioned Thomas Christiansen’s decision to start attacker Samu Saiz on the bench in the club’s clash against Preston on Saturday afternoon.

The Yorkshire giants are lining up at Elland Road for their third fixture of a busy week for the club and their 4-1 midweek win over Port Vale saw Saiz start and bag a hat-trick.

Many felt that the performance was deserving of handing the 26-year-old a second start in quick succession.

But, fans have aired their disappointment on social media after it was revealed that he was starting from the bench at Elland Road with the established Pablo Hernandez taking up the attacking midfield position.
